* [[The Character Died with Him]]: Doc's counterpart "The Captain" in the UK Adaptation of the show was only featured in the first two seasons of the show because of Fulton MacKay's unfortunate death. The Captain's nephew P.K. took over the lighthouse in Season 3. After [[Put on a Bus|P.K. left]] for the final two seasons [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute|B.J.]]introduced as [[Long-Lost Relative|the Captain's son.]]
* [[Development Hell]]: Dear God, [[The Movie]]!
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Many established Muppeteers performed in this show. That's [[Jim Henson]] as Cantus and Convincing John.
** [[Mona Marshall]] was the voice of Mokey and Cotterpin in the [[Animated Adaptation]]. [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] since both characters also shared an actress/puppeteer in Kathryn Mullen.
** Believe it or not, [[Rob Paulsen]] provided the voice of Boober in the animated series.
** Because he performs so many characters in this series (including the main protagonist), Jerry Nelson's voice is easily recognizable.
** Kathryn Mullen, who performed Mokey Fraggle on the show, also performed Kira in ''[[The Dark Crystal]]'' <ref>who was voiced by Lisa Maxwell</ref>. Mullen also voiced Allegra in ''[[AllegrasAllegra's Window]]'' and Leona on ''[[Between the Lions]]''.
** Wembley Fraggle sounds like a younger, more innocent [[The Muppet Show|Rizzo the Rat]] -- only without the Brooklyn accent. No wonder, since Steve Whitmire played both (and has even described how he had some problems making Rizzo's voice distinct from Wembley's).
** [[The Tick (animation)|Townsend]] [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987|Coleman]] voices Gobo in the animated series.
* [[International Coproduction]]: With the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation]] and Britain's [[ITV|Television South]].
 
* [[Missing Episode]]: Most of the UK version.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Ma Gorg was voiced by Myra Fried in the first season, with Cheryl Wagner taking over the role in the second season.
** The Storyteller Fraggle was performed by Richard Hunt in her first appearance, with Terry Angus taking over the role after that.
* [[Short Run in Peru]]: HBO divided the fourth and final season into two very short seasons. Fortunately, although it took an agonizingly long time, the Final Season set [http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Fraggle-Rock-Easter-DVD/12772 has been released]!
